Removed the exaust no problem thanks to your video! Just curious will removing the actuator and unplugging it throw a code? I hate dash lights being on and i have no code reader for a Ducati.

How do I reach the back header bolt, it seems my socket set extension is either to short or too long to get the socket to sit on the nut properly

As informative as this demo is, it misses some key info. How to get to the 3rd header bolt on the horizontal cylinder, for example. I've been struggling with it for 4h - no banana! The battery cage is in the way, and I wished Ducati exercised their own tear-down to realize how less painful this seemingly straightforward procedure could be with a little more engineering foretaught and design adjustment. The 3rd bolt could've been easily accessible through some gaping hole in the battery cage - however it does not. This demo does not show it, which I find a serious gloss-over. While belaboring the undoing of the front bolt, which is tricky also but a no-brainer. I've been looking for how to drop the whole battery cage in order to get to the back 3rd bolt, but it's not obvious. Also, the running commentary could elucidate the reason for undoing the header bolts in the first place. Why the stock muffler couldn't be just "banged out"? My guess is that the muffler, from the factory, is in a "grid-lock" setup and the horizontal header pipe has to get some up-down vertical play in order to break the grid lock. Has anybody tried to bang out the muffler without loosening all 3 of the horizontal header pipe bolts? Would that risk damaging or stripping them and creating a leak at the flange? I can't even imagine the grief that stripping one of those bolts could cause.

If you actually watched the video, I clearly explained that the 3rd bolt could be accessed from underneath using a quarter drive with an extension bar. I also made comment on why the front pipe needed to be loosened to allow removal of the silencer.

@@big500 I did watch the video. It glibly states that "with the proper tools" one can access it, without actually showing it. The 3rd bolt is the thorniest aspect of this whole procedure. Do you access it through the battery cage, or you need to drop it somehow?

@@alberteinstin1136 The reason it isn’t shown, is that there is no way for my camera to actually see and film the nut. As I said in the original video and my reply above, it is accessed from underneath with a quarter drive ratchet, extension bar and socket. That’s the best I can do.

@@big500 with no intention to take away the value of your demo, the statement "it is accessed from underneath with a quarter drive ratchet, extension bar and socket" it's just too vague. I did use that tool, however got access to the 3rd bolt only after carving a bigger hole in the battery cage (right side) with forstner bit (1.5") and sawzall blade. The most important thing is that the 1/4" extension 10mm socket can be thus aligned squarely on the brass nut, which becomes visible to direct eyesight and is otherwise fragile and can be easily stripped or rounded off. A nightmare scenario if that happens. I'm sharing this experience of mine as a service and precaution to anybody attempting to remove the OEM muffler on XD. You need to undo the 3 brass nuts on the horizontal header pipe sufficiently for them to be flush with the threaded bolt ends. The key is to gain square access to the nuts, otherwise you may strip them and remain hosed forever after. Loosening the header pipe is necessary in order to provide wiggle room to slip off the "grid-locked" slip-on horizontal and vertical cylinder header pipe joints. I'm declaring victory as of this morning - OEM hunk of metal (10.4kg) is finally out. Can't wait to hear the new Arrow Titanium pipes (3kg) roar.
